*INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER*

A gritty, gripping memoir by the singer Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, Queens of the Stone Age, Soulsavers), chronicling his years as a singer and drug addict in Seattle in the '80s and '90s


"Mark Lanegan-primitive, brutal, and apocalyptic. What's not to love?"

--Nick Cave, author of The Sick Bag Song and The Death of Bunny Munro


When Mark Lanegan first arrived in Seattle in the mid-1980s, he was just "an arrogant, self-loathing redneck waster seeking transformation through rock 'n' roll." Little did he know that within less than a decade he would rise to fame as the frontman of the Screaming Trees and then fall from grace as a low-level crack dealer and a homeless heroin addict, all the while watching some of his closest friends rocket to the forefront of popular music. In Sing Backwards and Weep, Lanegan takes readers back to the sinister, needle-ridden streets of Seattle, to an alternative music scene that was simultaneously bursting with creativity and dripping with drugs. He tracks the tumultuous rise and fall of the Screaming Trees, from a brawling, acid-rock bar band to world-famous festival favorites that scored a hit number five single on Billboard's alternative charts and landed a notorious performance on Late Night with David Letterman, where Lanegan appeared sporting a fresh black eye from a brawl the night before. This book also dives into Lanegan's personal struggles with addiction, culminating in homelessness, petty crime, and the tragic deaths of his closest friends. From the back of the van to the front of the bar, from the hotel room to the emergency room, onstage, backstage, and everywhere in between, Sing Backwards and Weep reveals the abrasive underlining beneath one of the most romanticized decades in rock history-from a survivor who lived to tell the tale. Gritty, gripping, and unflinchingly raw, Sing Backwards and Weep is a book about more than just an extraordinary singer who watched his dreams catch fire and incinerate the ground beneath his feet. It's about a man who learned how to drag himself from the wreckage, dust off the ashes, and keep living and creating.

Amazingly good
This by far, is the very best product and formulation that I've ever used on my face. I have super sensitive skin and have tried three different brands before trying this. The others I've tried, either had a beefy smell after a little while or contained essential oils that irritated my skin. I almost gave up. This was my last try and I'm so glad I gave it a chance. Absolutely no smell and no irritating essential oils or ingredients. It is very soothing and absorbs completely. Thank you Veakoo!! I will definitely keep using this and will be purchasing more. This is a wonderful product and has helped sooo much!

Great product!
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff! My mom introduced this to me while I was visiting her, and within 3 days of using it I knew I needed to order one for myself. It has no smell, goes on buttery soft, and soaks in well. It is not heavy at all. At night I layer it on thicker and during the day I put a very thin layer on under my makeup. My skin is so much softer and hydrated. I have had small bumps on my cheeks for so long and they were gone within 3 days. My skin looks dewy and soft. I read reviews of other brands that smelled, were oily, or too heavy. This is none of those things and it is a great price!

Best Beef Tallow Cream I’ve Tried
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Exactly what i was looking for, some of the beef tallow creams have a weird consistency which i don’t love wearing during the day. This cream is perfect for day and night. smells very good, application is perfect not greasy, moisturizing, soft. I love it! 10/10, will be buying again 💗

Order it! Its great
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love the texture! Its silky smooth and light on the skin, no weird smell, very moisturizing. Ive used one of the containers for most of my pregnancy to keep the skin on my belly and hips moisturized. I add a few drops of organic frankincense to a nickel-sized amount of this balm and mix it together in my hands before applying. I use a clean q-tip to scoop out the tallow balm as needed too to be sure the rest in the jar stays clean, rather than using my washed fingers, to reduce accidentally contaminating the rest of it somehow. My skin has stayed so healthy thanks to this product. It reduces the itchiness of my expanding skin from the baby growing in my belly, and i think its made a positive difference in preventing stretch marks by keeping my skin hydrated as i use it almost daily and after every shower. I just got my second jar in the mail to use for this last month of my pregnancy, and I will probably use it for my baby when hes born too. I also love that it comes in nice packaging, with a thank you note, very minimal plastic, and classy label. I dont think the jar is plastic either which i LOVE (pretty sure its glass container?) Thank you to the creators of this product. I kind of wish i could get it in a glass dispenser like lotion but i really dont care at the end of the day. Its amazing. You should try it.

Smells nice and light
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Nice and creamy. Feels silky. Unfortunately, it does not help my knuckles very much. But I would buy it again because it is a good cream.
